Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about our products and services

CSH/FL/SE uses a flat rather than cylindrical design. It also addresses vacuum, cleanroom and strong-magnetic-field environments.

No. Recommended flat-target size depends on model span and differs from active area. Use the model column, not the smallest family value.

Yes. The table distinguishes front and rear mounting temperature coefficients. Hole count and type also depend on model.

It specifies an integral 1.4 m cable with a type B connector. Other cables, feedthroughs and controller must also match the special environment.

No. Its explicit rating is IP40. Housing material and special-environment suitability do not increase that rating.
